What kind of imprint is this?

The oysters from Sherman Texas found in the uppermost Eagle Ford shale are Cameleolopha bellaplicata. Some have coral and/or bryozoan growing on them. See the publication:

"The Late Cretaceous oyster Cameleolopha bellaplicata (Shumard 1860), guide fossil to middle Turonian strata in New Mexico" found at link

My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.   

See my Arizona Paleontology Guide    link  The best single resource for Arizona paleontology anywhere.

You will probably find more where you found that one. Oysters are seldom preserved as single specimens.

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!

Thank you all. I’ve definitely been looking more into fossils rather than teeth but the teeth are a lot harder to miss where I go. These are some fossils I found yesterday!!!

I could do it. It's why I look for other fossils. :wacko:

Some of the other people I go with can’t find em like I can either. I can sit down and find 5 within a few minutes. I think I’ve made 5 trips total and have over a hundred.
